meltano VS Prefect

I would use something like meltano or airbyte, but if you really want to use Lambda for extraction I'd say there is no point spinning up a Redshift cluster just for that, Athena would be the way to go and you can use dbt pretty nicely with it and it would keep costs down.

Airbyte and Singer/Meltano if you want to learn more about ingestion pipelines. Airbyte and Meltano teams are very welcoming. SQLfluff a shiny SQL linter. Beautiful project with awesome maintainers.

I know really sure if this is what are you looking for, but take a look at Meltano

I'm not aware of any. I did just open this issue[0] in the Meltano project to open discussion with the team/community. It could be an interesting iteration on the Singer Spec[1] if we find that users are interested in it and it helps solve some bottleneck challenges.

Good point! As expected, there's an issue about adding it already: https://gitlab.com/meltano/meltano/-/issues/1175

At GitLab, we're not ready to give up on the Singer spec, community, and ecosystem yet, which is why I've been working on Meltano for the past year: https://meltano.com/

We think that the biggest things holding back Singer are the lack of documentation and tooling around taking existing taps and targets to production, and around building, debugging, maintaining, and testing new or existing high-quality taps and targets.

Meltano itself addresses the first problem, and provides a robust and reliable platform for building, running & orchestrating Singer- and dbt-based ELT pipelines.

At the same time, we have been working with some members of the community on a new framework for building taps and targets: https://gitlab.com/meltano/meltano/-/issues/2401, which we have decided to call the Singer SDK: https://gitlab.com/meltano/singer-sdk

If I was answering this question but for python, I'd recommend something like prefect, boto3, or tortoise-orm -- not extremely complex and with a pretty comprehensible featureset.

However, if you are looking for something like this, but much more mature and something of a bloat to be frank, there's Prefect. Honestly, woflo borrows a lot from Prefect conceptually.

Disclaimer: I work for Prefect.

It looks like we added cron and other schedule types to the deployment CLI just under a month ago[1].

Over the last couple of releases, we've also made it easier to pull deployments from GitHub or bake your flow code into Docker images instead of needing S3-like storage.

As with any product, there's always more to do, so I appreciate you sharing your thoughts. More than anywhere else I've worked, community feedback is a huge driver of product enhancements and feature development. Feel free to join our Slack community[2] if you'd like to share more feedback or ask questions.
